GLENN BECK, FOX NEWS: I think this is the first time I have wasted
an hour of your time. And I apologize for that.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

TAPPER: Welcome back to "This Week." I can't promise any tickle
fights, but we're joined here at the roundtable by, as always, George
Will, Anita Dunn, former Obama White House communications director,
about to take a contract with the Democratic National Committee. Ed
Gillespie, formerly of the Bush White House. And of course, Cokie
Roberts. Thank you all so much for joining us. We have a lot to talk
about.

George, at the White House, I have reported three or four times that
the White House says they're about to pivot from health care reform to
jobs. And here we are, a quarter of 2010 is almost over, and we're
still talking about health care.

WILL: We're still waist deep in health care monomania. It's
amazing. We're right where we were last summer when the president tried
to present an aura of inevitability about this. He said he wanted it on
his desk by August. We're halfway to the next August and we still don't
have it.

The president said in on one of the clips at the beginning of the
show, it's time to vote. Republicans should say, good, let's vote
Monday. Because if they had the votes, we would be voting on Monday.
The fact is, they want this over with before March 26th so they don't
have a repeat of last year.

March 26th is a recess. The members are going to go home and meet
their constituents. And that was an unpleasant experience last summer
because of health care.

TAPPER: Anita, is it going to pass?

DUNN: Yes, it will, Jake. And here -- I am not going to say when,
of course. But here is the deal. I totally agree with George. Let's
have an up-or-down vote. If the Republicans truly believe that this is
going to hurt Democrats in a midterm election, why won't they put it to
a vote? That is what we do when we have disagreements in this country,
you know, political disagreements. We let the majority decide. And
this one, in particular, let's just have that up-or-down vote this
week. I think it will pass. And then the Republican can go out in the
midterm elections and explain to people why they felt that folks who had
pre-existing conditions should not be able to afford insurance. They
can explain why small businesses shouldn't get a tax credit to help buy
insurance for their employees. They can go out there and explain why
they were against all of the very fundamentally popular things that are
in the bill. So, let's have a vote.

TAPPER: Ed, you know what they say about Speaker Pelosi is that she
doesn't have the votes a week before the vote, she doesn't have the
votes the morning of the vote, but then the vote comes and she has the
votes. You worked in the House. Do you think that she's not going to
be able to get the votes?

GILLESPIE: I think she may not be able to get the votes. But it's
also true, I know, that usually you bring a bill to the floor when you
get the votes. Sometimes you don't get the votes until you bring a bill
to the floor, and I suspect that's where they're going to be at the end
of next week.
